Mrs. Betty Rodriguez was born and raised in Richmond, Texas and graduated from Lamar Consolidated High School in Rosenberg. Growing up she attended St. John Fisher where her parents instilled deep roots in the Catholic faith. This was also the church where she would marry the love of her life, Deacon Gilbert Rodriguez. They are blessed to be married 46 years and have five children and eight grandchildren. Deacon and Mrs. Rodriguez have been members of Saint Theresa Catholic Church for 45 years, working and volunteering in many areas of the Parish. The Lord was by their side leading and preparing them for the Diaconate. Mrs. Rodriguez feels that through Him they have been able to live the life of the Diaconate for the past 11 years.
Another of God’s blessings was when she became one of the pioneers of Saint Theresa Catholic School. Mrs. Rodriguez was given the privilege to be the first School Secretary in 2007. After ‘retiring’ to take care for her grandchildren, she is returning to her School home. She is very proud to be part of this amazing school once again. She looks forward to working alongside the wonderful staff, parents, and students who embody the values of service to the Lord.
Mrs. Rodriguez’s greatly enjoys Sunday dinners with her family. Old and young come together to celebrate, laugh, tell stories, and make memories. She also enjoys crafting, crocheting, and taking long walks.
